Assembly and analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of an endemic Camellia species of China, Camellia tachangensis

Our study deciphered the mitochondrial genome and its multibranched structure of C. tachangensis. These findings not only enhanced our comprehension of the complexity and diversity of mitochondrial genome structures in Camellia species, but also established a foundational genetic data framework for future research on molecular breeding programs and phylogenetic relationship involving C. tachangensis and its related species.
